Do you mean to say that if I tape the Cosby Show and then show it to a friend,
that is illegal? This seems ludicrous to me. It is TELEVISION we are
talking about. A FREE service. ANYBODY can watch it. The only exception
is if you tape a show, show it to an audience, and make a profit.
Of course, I may be wrong.
